At first I thought what a deal. After thinking about it, I think you should only buy what you like. That is a good price for all that, but not if you never use it. Since you are a newbie, it could go to waste. When I was new, I bought tons of things that I just gave away recently. When I sorted through my stash some of the fabrics were the "what was I thinking?" kind. Just a thought, but that IS a good price for all that.

For the price I would take it all!

all that for 47 dollars. My guess is by the time you check out the opinions on here it will be gone!

I wouldn't buy it. I don't like getting squares that someone else has selected and cut. I didn't see any tools that I have already purchased (meaning that I at least think they are useful) or that I want. The patterns might be a good deal, but only if you actually use them, and there are so many patterns available that you're better off choosing what you like.

Go for it. You can put away what you are not ready for, and pull it out later. :thumbup:

If it's nearby, it might not hurt to look -

I'm with dunster - I much prefer to cut my own squares -

for the money involved, you might be better off using the coupons for Jo-Ann's and getting good basic equipment.

I would only buy it if you can get a good deal on it. You can find so much fabric cheap at sales.

Whatever you do, some are marked "sold." Might want to go see asap.
